Vacation rentals in Cartaxo

After a week of hotel stays it was so nice to decompress in a home and do laundry! It was just the 2 of us and the space was much more than enough. A bigger party would be very comfortable. Appreciated the welcome email which included instructions on how to use all the appliances. Request- add in a true American coffee maker. The fact that the home is completely updated added to our comfort level. There are great spaces to relax and we enjoyed what the home offered and loved the showers. This location in Central Portugal is in a sleepy hood. There is a corner market but it doesn’t offer much. Arriving late, we were able to get a few essentials for our first morning such as milk & bananas. The 2 towns we decided to day trip to were Coimbra & Aveiro. Both are approximately 1 hour away. While it was a bit farther than I hoped, it was a nice chance to see the countryside & the A17 is so easy to drive. We were quite impressed with the freeways. Would consider a return with more guests!

This was a really cute and nice place. It was as showed in the pictures, even a pooltable! The house is clean with a cozy fire place we used a lot because it was winter. The garden very beautiful and big. Though the outside area and pool is shared with another place on the same property, which was no problem for us but might should be taken into account. The surroundings are stunning, perfect for some peaceful time in nature.

This house worked out very well for two families with kids. It's very big and spread out with lots of sleeping options. There's a tiny bit of wear and tear and we did have to buy/bring all of our own basic kitchen supplies like spices, oils, sugar, salt and pepper, toilet paper, paper towels, shower soaps. But we loved that the house provided beach supplies like chairs, boogie boards, and umbrellas and yoga mats. Nothing much in walking distance but several excellent beaches and places to eat within a few miles. The pool and ping pong table were fantastic and we would definitely recommend this place for a group of travelers. We had a fabulous time. :-)

true gem! The balcony, with its breathtaking views, was the highlight of our stay — we could hardly tear ourselves away. Perfectly located within walking distance to the ocean, this apartment offers everything you could dream of. The host was exceptional, always available and incredibly helpful, making our stay seamless from start to finish. The cozy and stylish apartment, paired with the unbeatable location, made this an unforgettable experience. Highly recommended!

Antonio is a very kind person and the house is just as advertised. It is spacious and has a nice outdoor area to spend time in. The kitchen is well-equipped. My friends found the matresses in the "kids bedroom" and the bed upstaris very hard but this is certainly a matter of personal taste. The bed in the master bedroom is very comfortable. Also there is no door to the upper level so the person sleeping there has to deal with noise coming from downstairs. The house is a 20-25 min walk away from the city center. All in all the house was as we expected it to be. Antonio was certainly very nice and helpul even though we did not meet in person. I can recommend his place.

Cool place with an amazing ocean view! Perfect spot for surfers, with a surf shop right on the first floor offering board and wetsuit rentals. There's also a great restaurant downstairs, making it super convenient to grab a bite after a session in the waves. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking to stay close to the beach with everything you need just steps away!

We had a wonderful week here! Our 5 year old loved the climbing frame, extra toys and of course the heated swimming pool. We loved the peace and quiet, the beautiful surroundings and the view. The house is extremely comfortable and we were made to feel at home right away after a lovely welcome and tour to help us get settled. The fantastic beds (hotel quality) and blackout blinds meant that we all slept really well, especially after long, active days. All of the facilities were of very high quality. The area is beautiful with a range of different beaches to choose from, as well as trips to Lisbon and Sintra easily possible, and the nearby mountains as well. There was also the convenience of a lovely bakery and mini supermarket very close by, as well as fantastic restaurants on the local beaches. A great place to stay, wonderful hosts and a fantastic area. We would highly recommend!!

We had a wonderful time here. The house is beautiful and comfortable with great attention to details. It was a very relaxing place to be. We loved spending time here. The coast is stunning and just down the road. We were there for the one day blackout in Spain and Portugal and we were well looked after by the family on the property with candles and flashlight. The bbq came into its own that night.
